Last year's "bright and joyful" smash hit is back by popular demand!

Midsommer Flight’s second annual production will provide a free, family-friendly activity to Chicagoans for the holiday season and a unique experience amongst the other holiday offerings in Chicago. Come celebrate the holiday season with Midsommer Flight with this unique “indoor Shakespeare in the Park” experience inside the iconic Lincoln Park Conservatory.

Twelfth Night features a cast 14 actors and original music. The play takes the audience to Illyria, where a shipwrecked Viola disguises herself as a boy, goes to work for the Duke Orsino and falls in love with him, who in turn loves the fair lady Olivia. Misunderstandings and misplaced love abound in this delightful comedy. The title of the play refers to the “twelfth night of Christmas,” and some historians believe that the play was originally written and performed for the holiday.
